One 100/1000 Base-T port Ethernet for out-of-band 
management of the enclosure
NOTE: 
The default management port IP addresses for 
the primary and secondary RAID controller modules 
are 192.168.128.101 and 192.168.128.102, respectively. 
By default, the management ports are set to Dynamic 
Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). If the controller 
is unable to get an IP address configuration from 
a DHCP server within a specified time out period 
(approximately 3 minutes), it defaults back to 
static IP addressing. For more information, 
see the Deployment Guide.
